    Like the watch. Wish the battery lasted longer. My kids have Garmin watches they stay charged for 3 days. Only get 1 day out of this one.

    I love all the features. it does way more then my Fitbit Versa 4. I hope it lives longer also. Versa 4 lasted 18 months. The only con is the battery life, I have to charge it every day - hence the 4 stars

    Super easy to set up and does everything I need it to. Tracks my vitals, calories in/out, and my steps :) As a chronically ill person, I've loved being able to collect data for my doctors. I gave it a 4 instead of 5 because sometimes my phone call audio will bounce between my phone and the watch....this might be fixable in settings though and I just haven't found it yet. Super cool that the watch has speakers, but I wish it would only use them if I ask lol
